Long read but a def good read the rest is in the linkTERRY GROSS, HOST:

This is FRESH AIR. I'm Terry Gross. When crews broke ground on a major airport expansion in Mali funded by American foreign aid, the $71 million contract went to a Chinese construction firm. That's one small measure of China's economic engagement in Africa, where Chinese leaders see arable land and natural resources vital to China's industrial expansion and markets for growing Chinese companies.

Our guest, journalist Howard French, says there's debate about whether China's push into Africa will lead to African development and prosperity, or exploitation reminiscent of 19th century European colonialism. But, he says, it's led to another remarkable development. More than a million Chinese citizens have permanently moved to Africa, buying land, starting businesses and settling among local populations.

I'm on my phone but I'll get the rest of the text, but this Chinese man who owns land in one African nation said the people don't want him there so he is getting his sons to marry the local girls so they will have true claim to the land. Foul as hell

Until the day when Africans realized there is more to life than material items that themselves can make and appreciate everything about themselves. Realized it's inside where anything of true value comes from they will be the whores of the world.
